6 Comments on “Which Transact-SQL statement should you use?

  1. Yommy O. says:

    Option A & C are wrong: IF @@ TRANCOUNT = 0, means that no transaction was executed. @@TRANCOUNT indicates the number of BEGIN TRANSACTION encountered before the @@TRANCOUNT code.
    Option B is also wrong bcos of the THROW clause: the requirement says “should not return any error”.
